This is only news because he HAD a record label when he started. It's what made him famous. They paid for his albums, paid for publicity and marketing, and made sure his songs were on the radio. Prince is Prince because of the record label.Newsflash: There will also be some unknown, indie, garage-band musician putting out 3 albums in 2009. Is that news?

I think the last album of his I heard was "Diamonds and Pearls," which a former GF liked to listen to. How has his religious conversion affected his music?Oh, and Kevin Smith's story about filming a Prince documentary is effing hysterical: <a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy_cLJ19HMg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy_cLJ19HMg</a>

Pretty easy to do when you're Prince. Much harder when you lack the money, name recognition, know how, and existing fan base.

I liked him better when I couldn't pronounce his symbol.
